1 FAOAIDEnews Animal Influenza Disease Emergency Situation Update May 2011 HPAI outbreaks reported in this publication refer to officially confirmed cases only. The information is compiled from the following sources: World Organisation for Animal Health (OIE), national governments and their ministries, and the European Commission (EC) these sources are responsible for any errors or omissions. Coping with risks posed by avian influenza and other infectious diseases Societies around the world are frequently exposed to recurring risks including natural and manmade disasters. Over time people have developed complex resilience mechanisms. In terms of costs resulting from disasters, there are numerous figures that need to be accounted for in assessments. These costs range from economic to material to psychological. For instance, disease outbreaks cause death and illnesses in animals and humans. In animals, livestock mortalities decimate incomegenerating assets and limits livelihoods alternatives. In humans, illnesses not only reduce productivity but also carry economic repercussions in terms of healthcare and medications, among other associated expenses. Moreover, disasters (including earthquakes and tsunamis) can cause trauma reactions, as well as anxiety, depression, and grief. These shocks to animals and humans increase the prevalence of depression, posttraumatic disorders, shocks, sicknesses, and physical problems. Anecdotes and experiences recorded after disasters show that the most common response to natural and manmade disasters was shock, damage assessment, and recovery efforts, as well as reliance on social safety nets (i.e. support from family, friends, and neighbors), and some residual psychological harm. Scientific research tells us that because disasters are so pervasively threatening and hugely devastating, they activate the most primitive brain regions in humans. When faced with threats and hazards, the common human experiences are distress, intense fear, and panic. Brains instinctively go into fightorflight responses. These reactions are expected. Humans and designed to have them, and they turn out to be effective in helping mobilize survival instincts, gearing up defenses, and reacting promptly to threats and hazards. Contents Coping with risks posed by avian influenza and other diseases FAO as One Health: Moving Forward At a Glance Summary of confirmed HPAI outbreaks AIDEnews is an FAO ECTAD publication Editor: Sigfrido Burgos, ECTAD Communication Unit (sigfrido.burgos@fao.org) Emergency Centre for Transboundary Animal Diseases (ECTAD) 1
2 The degree of risk coping by vulnerable populations is closely associated with robustness of state services and national governance. During crises, the social contract between citizenries and their governments is either strengthened or weakened, depending on how the responses to disasters are handled. For example, in 2003, the severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) epidemic that swept through southern China created anxiety, disorientation, rising fears, and trepidation among domestic and foreign audiences. Studies demonstrate that providing the public with realistic information about both risks and recovery helps reduce anger, fear, uncertainty, and worry. It also helps promote community action. A year later, in 2004, another example with H5N1 highly pathogenic avian influenza (H5N1 HPAI) in Thailand showed that early communication with the public, the media, and consistent liaising with international authorities can significantly aid in regaining the trust of local communities on government actions. This is important to underscore because the breakup of social contracts can be caustic. Popular mistrust of the government after a disaster erodes morale, disintegrates communal cohesion, and can lead to collective victimizations. An increasing body of work suggests that infectious diseases will continue to emerge with the assistance of rising population growth, increased pressures on livestock production systems, more urbanization in the developing world, human encroachment of jungles and game reserves, deepening globalization of commerce and trade, and more frequent contacts between humans, domestic animals, and wildlife. As these threats and hazards rise as part of daily lives, so does the risks of new epidemics to develop. With the recent global scare created by pandemic influenza H1N1 in 2009, coupled with recurrent earthquakes, eruptions, hurricanes, tsunamis, and wars it is now clear that coping with risks is more complex than initially thought. For its part, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) puts in place technical cooperation programs with member countries to mitigate disease risks and minimize social threats. Within the Animal Production and Health Division (AGA), the unit responsible to respond to emergencies of animal nature is the Crisis Management CentreAnimal Health (CMCAH). In collaboration with other international agencies, FAO is able to help populations around the world cope with risks posed by diseases, as well as to devise livelihoods alternatives that aid in recovery efforts after disasters occur. FAO of the UN is an institutional partner of World Veterinary Year (Vet2011). FAO as One Health: Moving Forward In the interconnected world in which we are currently living it is no longer sensible to talk about health in isolation. The health of humans, animals, and ecosystems is tightly interconnected as the growing human population and the rapid urbanization is pushing people closer to previously untouched environments; with increasing demands for energy and natural resources. Similarly, rising incomes and globalized trade is placing pressure on crop and food production systems to satisfy the growing demand for cereals, legumes, vegetables, fruits, and highquality animal proteins that more affluent and urban social groups around the world are increasingly demanding. In addition, changing agroecological conditions, intensification of food production systems, and expanding local and global trade, has increased the likelihood of animal and plant diseases and pests to emerge and spread farther and faster than before, and for unsafe food to reach numerous consumers in distant markets.

3 Also, consideration needs to be given to transnational developments taking place around the globe; for example, climate change or threats from civil instabilities. Few disagree that our world is now witnessing the effects of atmospheric changes in terms of higher temperatures, increased rainfalls, and frequent natural disasters. The emergence of Brazil, China, India, and Russia, as well as of other transition economies is signaling a new era, one in which issues related to economic growth, economic and food security, rural development, poverty alleviation, and hunger mitigation are addressed concurrently. In the past decades, the world has been exposed to new threats and hazards. Some of these lie in animals and plants, some in humans, and others in ecosystems. For instance, in animals we can recall the highprofile cases of Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy in cattle in the United Kingdom, SARS in China and Canada, or Ebola Reston virus found in pigs in Southeast Asia. Also, more recently, we witnessed outbreaks of Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome in China and Viet Nam, Monkey Pox in the United States, Nipah virus in Malaysia and Bangladesh, and Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza H5N1 on three continents, followed closely by the worldwide spread of Pandemic Influenza H1N1 in Fish, mollusks, and crustaceans are, of course, also animals. And in some of these aquatic species we have white spot in shrimp, koi herpes virus, and viral hemorrhagic septicemia, to name a few. Similarly, crops and plants are attacked by pests and diseases that seriously impact food production and food availability: wheat rust Ug99 spread to Central Asia and northern India, and one of the most insidious migratory pests: Locust in Africa, Asia, and Europe. Also, food safety is becoming an increasingly serious issue due to a more globalized trade, as previously mentioned. Humans also are important disease and pest carriers. All of us are familiar with seasonal influenza. But there are other diseases still claiming lives all around the world. Some examples include HIV/AIDS, malaria, measles, smallpox, polio, mumps, and common diarrheas. Last, but not least, we have threats in our environments ranging from air and water pollution, inorganic waste, ocean contamination, and also some very new diseases which were not known to us. For example, scientific research has discovered that exotic bats and jungle rats can transmit debilitating diseases to animals and human. With changes in climate, we are expecting that certain parasites, viruses, and bacteria or their vectors will find new ecosystems in which to flourish. To sum up, the demographic explosion, the closer we get to each other and, to our environments, the more exposed we are to risks, threats, and hazards that impact our health and livelihoods. Simply put, everything is connected to everything else. The concepts behind One Health need to be examined through the lens of individuals, households, societies, states, regions, and continents. There is no more reason to view health as separate compartments. Health is to be seen together, in conjunction with all living species, integrated to our surrounding, our foods, livelihoods, and our daily lifestyles. In equal measure, dealing with health does not stop at delivering medications or responding to crises. It goes far beyond that. We need to talk about nutrition, about political, economic, cultural, social, scientific, technological, legal, and ecological impacts and linkages.
